Event Description

It was reported that the stent migrated.A 16x60mm, 100cm vici stent was selected for use in a procedure in (b)(6) 2020.The patient presented with a left-sided focal may-thurner syndrome blockage.The target lesion was approximately 30-40mm in length.Prior to stenting, a 0.035 inch non-boston scientific intravascular ultrasound (ivus) catheter was used to identify the blockage.The stent was sized 1:1, but a short size was selected.There were no difficulties during deployment.The stent was implanted in the left common iliac vein at the confluence.The stent appeared to fully expand and appose the vein walls.Several months later, the patient's symptoms recurred.On (b)(6) 2021, upon performing a venogram, the stent was not found in the location it was placed at confluence.Instead, the stent was discovered lodged in the left pulmonary artery.The patient was in stable condition.A follow-up stenting procedure was planned for a later date.
